Vardy fee reportedly up to £30m now.

 

How's that possible?  His release clause is £20M...

Wenger is switching formation so looks like no LW.

 

I think Ozil is gonna have a really good year with Sanchez/Vardy up front.

Dunno. That was the report. May be higher.

Where?  Can't find it anywhere?

[Ja Rhule]

Henrikh Mkhataryan got offers from Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs...  He will decide on his future shortly. Makes sense because he purchased house in London few months ago.

Looks like the interest is mutual.  Vardy wants to move to Arsenal.  The fee is £20M per Sky.

Edit: Vardy verbally agreed on 4 years £100,000 a week contract with Arsenal.  Leicester are trying to put a better deal together but unlikely they can compete with Arsenal.

[Ja Rhule]

This is surely cannot be true...  Are Arsenal about trigger Riyad Mahrez release clause as well?  

[DirtyMagic97]

All of the reports of his new contract earlier this year said the buy-out was £30m. Ranieri came out recently and said the same. I dunno. I guess we'll find out.

Also- Vardy is already on £80k/week. Leicester can easily match £100k/week. Just down to the player whether he wants to move or not.

Looks like Morata may be off to Chelsea now.

I would love to see a Morata and cash for Hazard type deal, but with Ronaldo staying I doubt they're seriously interested in Hazard anymore. 

 

Main transfer targets seem to be...

LB depth (Wendell please!!)

Benzema replacement (Aubameyang or Lewandowski)

Pogba

Potentially CB depth

Hazard is either bored or a fraud. I think a little of both.

Aubameyang + Pogba would be a crazy window. Pogba might be the first £100m player. Especially if he tears it up in Euros.

Right now the smoke is pointing towards Lewandowski, but if Bayern stand firm I think they could shift to Aubameyang pretty quickly. He's already declared his interest in playing for RM, and his pace would fit perfectly with their counter attack football.

I honestly believe Bayern will stand firm and keep Lewa. Probably give him a new contract.

Dortmund have already sold their entire team, so what's one more player? Aubameyang would definitely fit in well at Real Madrid. His counter-attack pace is stupid good.

He's the guy I want over Lewa tbh. The perfect fits for this team are Kun Aguero (who has injury concerns) and Aubameyang. If I could pick the perfect window it would be Wendell/Gaya (although I'm not sure asking Gaya to play behind Marcelo is realistic), Pogba, Aubameyang and a young CB to groom as depth (maybe Sule from Hoffenheim or even try to poach Giminez from Atletico). Pogba isn't really a NEED, but he's a 22 yr old player who is already RM starting xi caliber and his ceiling is through the roof. He's an investment for the now and the future of the club as one day, Pogba will be competing for (and winning) Ballon d'Or's.
